Are you interested in science? Do you have a good technical understanding? Do you want to protect the environment, people and animals? Then a career as an environmental technologist in wastewater management is just right for you!

Enormous quantities of water are used every day in both our private households and in industry. The result: dirty water that is contaminated with pollutants. Since clean water is vital for all of us, environmental technologists have a great responsibility in wastewater management. Monitoring all the processes that occur in a drainage network is therefore one of your key tasks. You will regularly take samples so that you can take immediate action in the event of an increased concentration of pollutants, for example.

You are an absolute team player, which gives you an advantage in this job at the City of Bonn. As an environmental technologist in wastewater management, you can expect numerous exciting and varied areas of work. Your workplace will be very varied as you will mainly be working outdoors.

The monitoring of the entire wastewater system, from its generation to its discharge into the water, is one of your main tasks as an environmental technologist in wastewater management. You will also be involved in indirect discharger monitoring and sewer maintenance.

In addition to controlling and monitoring the wastewater system, you will regularly collect and analyze data so that you can act immediately in the event of any anomalies. You will also be involved in cleaning work or construction measures.

Sewage sludge is produced during wastewater treatment and its treatment is also one of your tasks. After treatment, the sewage sludge is either disposed of properly or passed on, for example to farmers who use it as fertilizer.
